Expert Reply:
We can not ever safely recommend using passenger tires on a trailer. They are not rated for the vertical load that trailers see. If there is any way you can save up till you can afford to use all trailer tires it will be the way to go.
In the tire size of 225/75R15 we have the part # TTWTRTM2257515D which is pretty cost effective and would also potentially save you money in the long run in the event of passenger tires failing on your trailer and causing damage!
